  • Head, base and wall channels to the system details
  • Handover evidence
  • Tested butt-jointed insulating or integrity glass systems

What to check before ordering frameless fire-rated glazing in Dumfries

Cost

Frameless fire glazing is at the top of the price range because of the glass and precision required.

Protection on site

Frameless glass is exposed during the build. We plan protection until other trades finish.

Doors

True frameless fire doors are rare; most frameless walls use a slim framed door within the run. We show you the options on drawings.

Scotland regulations that shape the job

Scotland Which rules apply?

In Scotland, building work needs a building warrant under the Building (Scotland) Regulations 2004, with fire guidance in Section 2 of the Building Standards Technical Handbooks rather than Approved Documents.

For relevant premises, the Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006 place duties on the duty holder to maintain fire safety measures, which include fire-resisting glazing.

Scottish guidance has its own approach to escape routes and compartmentation, so glazing designs are checked against the Technical Handbooks and the warrant drawings.
